Grrl Power #701 – Trophy crew?
I thought it would be fun doing a reverse harem setup on Cora’s ship. I mean, why not? Being friends with Dabbler has obviously rubbed off on her. I tried to come up with some varied body and face types for her crew, but one guy is a bit more muscular than the others, and that’s about it. Their faces are obviously different, but I really wanted the orange faced guy to look a lot more like one of the effeminate pretty boys from those boy love mangas that girls seem to like. Or at least more like Tuxedo Mask at least. Same thing basically.
I just kind of gravitated to my standard fit male body type, so I guess that just means Cora has her own preferences. That or she values the skills of each member of the crew slightly more than she does having a varied menagerie.
About panel two, I didn’t even try and draw the ship from the bottom. I mean, I did a little in the first panel, but cheated with the blur. I’m still trying to catch up from the holidays, so I figured better to throw in a self-aware joke than to pull my hair out trying to draw a big shot of the underside of the ship.
If this was a manga and I had a team of background artists, this whole page would have been just an establishing shot of the spaceport, then a 2/3 of the page panel of the ship sitting in the dock. That’s fine if you’re flipping through a book, but for a biweekly webcomic, it’d be kind of a bummer to visit a page and just see some sweet backgrounds, IMO.
Double res version will be posted over at Patreon. $1 and up, but feel free to contribute as much as you like.
I know it is random, but I am amused by how Sydney, Max, and Ariana are all checking out Dabs cleavage on the top title bar icons. I just wish Anvil and Harem were too, to make it unanimous…
I can’t seem to load an image here, but here is a link to a snap of it…
https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/49898549_10218274820963300_1792022615460675584_n.jpg?_nc_cat=102&_nc_ht=scontent-sjc3-1.xx&oh=dff1f8c74748e5fc1f91dd7446091dae&oe=5CD41605
Funny how those come up. Mine is Sydney running away scared, Max looking angrily at Dabbler, Dabbler looking like she farted, Anvil being slightly annoyed, same Harem as yours (with an approving wink) and Peggy looking worried.
mine is Sydney drooling over really hot chilli meal, Maxima seeing some weird shît, Dabbler not being sure what she is seeing, Anvil being menacing, Harem being casual and Arianna looking like “not again” or “why me”
That… that’s beautiful.
*snort* bwahaha – only thing that would have made that snap better is if Dabs had that predatory look with her licking her lips
Would be cool if the upper icons could match the mood of the page too.
I had one where Syd was looking worried behind her shield (you could see the pattern) when she was dealing with the Kaiju
*slow claps for the random image generator*
I get Halo staring at Max who is looking slightly disturbed at Halo staring at Dabbler’s hypno-bewbs, Peggy grinning at the two of them, Halo winking at the show and Arianna wide-eyed and looking at them from the sidelong.
In Oz we would call those pantie things “buDgie smugglers”… ;) These are simply beefy muscular buDgies, yes?
First time commenting, just to say that this has become one of my favourite webcomics, alongside How To Be A Werewolf and Girl Genius. I love as well how this page has self aware jokes, a male harem (not necessarily my thing, but I like it compared to the number of girl harem there are), and the comments are discussing the difficulties surrounding human and alien sex.
Can a snake(man) be hung like a horse? Y6t6tyt5tf555556t6y665
Well Sir Hiss there is more of a lizardman instead of a snakeman, but Earthly lizards don’t really have external genitalia, as far as I know.
its all in the cloaca, but most reptiles are well endowed for their body size; not in the same sense as small mammals though. It varies species to species, some have two so it doesn’t matter which side they approach from, some inflate, some are spring loaded *crocodilians usually have the spring loaded genitals so technically they are always erect, it just stays tucked away till they squeeze the right muscles to let it out*.
Yes, twice. Some snakes have two.
Lizards too. a good deal of Squamata have Hemi-penes.
So many people made jokes about the three seashells from Demolition Man. Did anyone even consider they might have sex like the non-contact sport from the same movie? All this talk of incompatible organs/methods my be not at all relevant.
Yeah, and that VR Sex came across as very rapey, and that was from his point of view
I have seen some sci-fi try to pull the neutral ground sex between species, either by avatar bodies in VR or suits/robots with neural feed back.
Honestly seems like it would come across as weird to both parties unless the simulations catered to the neural feed back of one more than the other; but otherwise the experience would be alien to them both. Phantom erogenous zone syndrome or something like *wow this avatar body feels really good right here, but its numb where I should be excited when touched, that is really distracting me from the moment*
Or it may be more like Woody Allen’s Sleeper, the >a href=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Isrd7E5nzIQ” target=”new”>Orgasmatron.
Or like Jane Fonda’s Barbarella in the Excessive Machine.
Oops. Orgasmatron
Or this one: Sleeper
Demolition Man Sex Scene
I’m sure its been said, but I have to say it, its been bugging me ever since Cora mentioned how her outfit works.
Unless there is something else at play here, if this hard light is just a skin tight ‘paint’, allowing you to see muscle definition, bones, and belly buttons clearly (which you do on Cora, but – oddly – not on her harem), then these guys would be doing more than just bulging. Syd would be able to see EXACTLY what they are packing.
Just as you could see nipples, and – in Cora’s case – labia.
You’d also see body hair if our esteemed artist wasn’t such a product of 1990s American fashion.
Heck, with Spandex and other regular clothes these things are often clearly visible, let alone if you are just projecting coloured ‘hard’ light onto someone.
To quote a classmate from long ago after the teacher complained about another’s students pants being too tight; “His pants are so tight you can see the veins in his testicles!”
You couldn’t actually, but you get the idea.
And really, Syd, if any of the guys are ‘up’ for it, you should really indulge yourself. Seriously, why not? Just getting all worked up when they are willing to help you out? Assuming they are.
Its an adjustable field, it could even make clothing on her body like a heehaw outfit and a gimp suit. So we can assume it can pad out where needed.
It would depend on the image that is being displayed. They can probably adjust the visual image to be anything from form fitting and displaying nipples to barbie doll level anatomy. I mean Cora demonstrated she can make her arms look like a normal set of arms.
She doesn’t have arms or legs.
The hard light suit can make legs that carry Cora’s weight and arms that can weild weapons so it’s not just recoloring things with thin illusions.
Not everyone is into Euro-fashion where women’s pits are long enough to be braided, or 70’s porn stars (or Burt Reynolds)
Not even all of us Europeans are into that. Unfortunately, it sems to be fashinable over here.
You mean varied man-agerie…amirite? *wink wink, elbow nudge*
I hope she feels up to some shenanigans. She should totally take this opportunity with willing ALIENS. It has to be on her bucket list!
you know, I really hope she consents to get her ashes hauled on this trip. She could sure do with a good lay.
…if she doesn’t mind Sidney being “amenable,” why even warn them? Surely she has more faith in her crew than that…
Because Dabbler probably warned her humans can be weird about sex, but not everyone on the crew might know that.
Yeah, it’s not a warning, it’s a “you guys are in full-on bulge-smolder mode, knock it off….at least until checking for consent/interest is done.”. No lack of faith in the crew, she knows they’d follow her order, it’s just a change in the immediate moment.
By all means, go ahead and let Sydney get some action, even if it’s just off-panel.
I know it’s a common trope to have the harem-victim try their best to resist, but at some point that trope just got kinda old for me, so I wouldn’t mind if on some future page it was implied that she just gave in.
Unless she saves herself for Leon or something. I can respect that, too.
All that comes to mind with this scene is Awaken My Masters from Jojos Bizarre Adventure.

Ya, Know it ain’t really the guys fault, we’ve always been told to put your best foot forward…
In this case it might foot to foot and a half…
*runs*
Just gotta say, I’ve been waiting for this moment since you introduced Cora and the Maliens.
Always upvote beefcake. It’s not my cup of tea, but there’s not nearly enough of it in the world.
I can’t seem to find it now, but there was some discussion somewhere about Frix’s arm having been tattooed, or dyed, or if it’s a hardlight ornament. Made me think:
Come to Gene Schriber’s Tattoo Shoppe!

Aha, I couldn’t find it because I’m on the *wrong comic*. Well, that explains it. And I can’t delete the post, because the forum system doesn’t allow it. Feh. Now I have to just leave it there, lookin’ stupid, in front of everybody.
Welcoming Cora with a bulge off would be a violation of protocol. You have to maintain that salute until it’s put at ease.
Ugh… more arbitrary muscles…
At first, the spelling of “BULDGE” bothered me . . . but then I realized that, of course, this particular bulge definitely has a “D” in it.
